Moot point, because a fighter pilot will never say "head." That and the word "box" are strictly prohibited.

  Interesting, why?

    Apparently you are not supposed to say anything rude or even mildly sexually related on the PA, according to [0] No idea about "box" tho, is that even remotely sexual (not an english native)? [0](http://www.f-16.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4224 http://www.f-16.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4224)

      http://urbandictionary.com http://urbandictionary.com is often helpful if you suspect there's something you might be missing. Even as a native speaker, I find it useful. I'm not always hip to the yout patois.

      Box is slang for vagina.

    It's a cultural thing. Fighter pilots play several games with each other, usually violating a rule means you have to pay money (the dead bug game and fixation on the number 69 are also interesting). They claim the games increase situational awareness, but it's really just an excuse to create a very tight culture (some would say exclusionary).

  Yup, I have heard many a fighter pilot say things like "Over-Cranial Projector" instead of "Overhead Projector".
